Add to this some of our best blogs of the year by guests such as Tamera Alexander, Susan May Warren, editors, and agents, and you have a win-win for anyone that comes by.

How? Just come on by Seekerville and leave a comment, and you’re in the draw — it’s THAT easy!! The more comments you leave (one per day is perfect), the more chances you have to win the daily prize, the weekly prize of $50 gift card, and then the monthly grand prize of the Kindle Fire with Alexa.

๐Ÿ˜ณ Facebook Live Tomorrow!

Come join me on my FB Author Page for another FB Live Q&A with a CDQ THURSDAY, OCT. 12, AT 7PM CDT. Laura Frantz was supposed to be my guest, but unfortunately she has come down with a flu bug and raspy throat, so I will be reading a few answers to questions y’all asked Laura last time.

But … I will be sharing one of my favorite TRUE stories, so you’ll want to stop by. AND … if you show up during the actual FB Live, you’ll be in the draw for a signed paperback from Laura and an e-book from me! Hope to see you there!

๐Ÿ“” Cover Reveal for New Novella!

Good news, bad news.

The good news is I will be releasing a brand-new novella called For Love of Liberty in the near future.

The bad news is I am behind schedule on it, so I may or may not get it out in time for Christmas. ๐Ÿ™

But stay tuned to Journal Jots because that’s where I will announce the release date first, okay? So if you have not subscribed to Journal Jots (which means you receive an email with the blog in it every single time I post), then I highly recommend you do so by entering your email into the SUBSCRIBE box at the top right-hand of this page.

More good news is that I will be giving sneak peeks at the 1st chapter in the near future, so keep your eyes peeled for Journal Jot emails, okay? Meanwhile, here’s the blurb:

A Match Made in Heaven?

Or Someplace a Whole Lot Warmer?

Sheโ€™s stubborn, educated, and looking to give women the vote.

Heโ€™s bullheaded, successful, and looking to give her a piece of his mind.

ย But when things heat up, they just may give each other

a piece of their hearts.

๐Ÿ“น Video Interview for Writers!

On Tuesday, September 26th, I had the privilege of being interviewed via live video on Cara Grandle’s Periscope show, which is geared to writers. But I have to admit, I had a blast, so I hope the interview is really fun for both writers and readers.

Almost three hundred people showed up, so THANK YOU to those of you who lent their support. Since the live interview, Cara has posted the video on Youtube, so here’s that link if you want to check it out:
